This was the first time using Fusion 360 but it turned out well enough. I only spent about an hour designing this, but here it is:

This is a cooling shroud, designed to force air from behind the motor around the back and along the main body. Here's a picture of it printing ... badly. I'm far too impatient to let it take it's time.

Nice! Not bad for first time F360 design!

Ya Fusion 360 isn't too bad, I really like the timeline features. Makes moving from OpenSCAD a little easier.
